Upon leaving the Arade River, you'll be greeted by the imposing view of Ferragudo Castle, the centuries-old guardian of the port entrance. Seen from the sea, the castle takes on a special charm, its walls reflecting in the blue of the Atlantic – the perfect setting for the first epic photos of the trip.
We continue our journey, admiring sinkholes and caves until we reach the charming village of Carvoeiro, where white houses balance on colorful cliffs and where the fun begins to pick up pace. From here, the coast transforms into a true natural adventure park, with caves, rock formations, and surprising hidden corners.
The excitement intensifies when we enter the famous Benagil Cave – one of the most impressive places in Portugal. The light entering through the opening at the top illuminates the golden sand and creates a magical atmosphere you'll never forget. A perfect moment to feel the adrenaline and the beauty of nature at the same time.
We continue our tour to the majestic Praia da Marinha, considered one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. Its natural arches, crystal-clear waters, and imposing cliffs create such an unbelievable setting that it seems straight out of an adventure movie.
After many laughs, photographs, and moments of pure discovery, we returned to Portimão with the incredible energy of those who have just lived a memorable experience at sea.
A perfect trip for those seeking excitement, fun, and the most impressive landscapes of the Algarve—all in one trip!
